Dad,

sadly missed along the way, quietly remembered everyday, no longer in our life to share, but in our hearts you’re always there. You taught us to believe in ourselves and have no fear. You taught us many life skills which we are eternally grateful for. You will be deeply missed. Love Giovanni and Silvana.

To our loving nonno, we are forever grateful for our beautiful memories that we have shared together. Your words and teaching will remain in our hearts forever. We love you and we miss you. Rest in Peace. Love Carmelanne, Sahib and Carolina.

Dear Dad, I am eternally grateful for everything you have taught me. I will miss the sound of your voice, the wisdom in your advice, the stories of your life and your beautiful smile. Rest in Peace. Your loving daughter, Dina.

Your memory is our keepsake, with which we'll never part. God has you in His keeping and we have you in our hearts. Rest in Peace. With all our love, Enza, Carmel, Dina, Staffiero and Lucy Phillips and family.
